E 'acceptable for "real men" to dance? Furthermore, it is acceptable for two "real men" to dance with each other? Most of us would probably say no. But this is because most of us do not dance Tango Argentino!
Argentine Tango is a dance that is completely free and open to interpretation. There are step patterns, there is no right or wrong way to hear music, without restrictions on how close they are with your partner. SoNo wonder it is also quite normal (read "socially acceptable") for two men dancing together.
Contrary to common belief that the Argentine tango is a dance about the relationship between a man and a woman, most dancers will tell you that the tango is a dance what you feel or want to display. Of course, it may be a man and a woman, but it should be and often is not.
Tango can be playful, flirty, funny, serious, stupid, bad mood ... Although it may be difficult for some people to learn how to express themselves through dance (see for example, learn to act sexy in front of other people in the Rumba), the tango does not have this problem. If you come to the tango lesson, and all I can think about is your work day, then just dance a "hectic" Tango, and it is all right! The trick with the Argentine tango is to dance what you feel, because if enoughdance> steps, you can even sit!
